Cuisine: Italian
Type: Meat
Courses: Breads
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 lbs 908g / 32ozSweetbreads - soaked, trimmed, and blanche
  Flour
4 tablespoons 60mlButter
1 tablespoon 15mlChopped shallot
1 cup 237mlDry sherry wine
1 cup 237mlHeavy cream
  Salt and freshly ground - white pepper
6   Bread - crusts removed, sauteed golden brown

Recipe Instructions

Cut the sweetbreads into 1/2-inch slices, season them with salt and pepper, and dust lightly with flour. Heat the butter in a large frying pan over fairly high heat until the foam subsides and brown the sweetbreads for about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer them to a hot serving platter and keep warm. Add the shallot to the butter in the pan, cook until it begins to color, add the sherry, and reduce to 1/2 its quantity. Add the cream and continue cooking until slightly reduced and thickened. Taste, and correct seasoning. Arrange a few pieces of the sweetbreads on each of the slices of toast and spoon a little of the sauce over each.
